I do not believe I have bipolar disorder.

Postby LordByron » Fri Jan 22, 2016 8:50 pm

I do not believe I have bipolar disorder because it cannot be proven in my blood urine or by a cat scan. I do not like the medication it makes me throw up and makes me feel punch drunk and stupid. I have this underlying feeling my doctor is trying to kill me and make me fat because I am a good looking kid. Anyhow it's my choice to not take medication or take this diagnosis seriously, and quite honestly I've ran into no real problems in my life. Other people taking their depression and anger out on me and blaming me for it, but none of these crazy emotions ever belong to me. I am a healthy young person physically and mentally and I don't tell people I have bipolar disorder because it's not an important part of my life and it really doesn't affect me. I think these doctors are having a field day with me exaggerating the truth for $$

I understand that a DSM diagnostic label has been assigned to me, based on my doctor's (and perhaps also on other people's) subjective judgment of my speech, manner, and behavior during our meeting, which lasted approximately _____ minutes.

I understand that although my doctor says that I am sick or that I have a treatable illness or disease, he or she is just using a figure of speech and cannot establish, with any test or procedure known to medical science that I in fact "have" the "illness" implied by the diagnostic label.

So quit. Why screw with these doctors and all this psychiatry bull $#%^ when all you have to do is quit and like just walk off the battlefield ?

I never had any "bipolar disorder" I had anxiety then was given these pills that didn't help then addictive ones then I have so called ADHD and start the adderal speed then I am "bipolar" too.

I didn't know psychiatry was a big fraud and believed that serotonin marketing lie and got in deep.

Here is one for you

US Children Diagnosed With Bipolar 72 Times More Often than Kids in UK

Children and youth in the United States are leaving hospitals with a diagnosis of bipolar disorder 72.1 times more often than children and youth in the UK, according to a study led by University of Oxford researchers published in the Journal of the American Academy of Child & Adolescent Psychiatry. US children receive a diagnosis of bipolar at a rate of 100.9 per 100,000 population compared to 1.4 per 100,000 in the UK.

So anyway if the treatment for the so called bipolar makes you feel worse again just walk away.

Thanks but no thanks psychiatry is not for me have a nice day or have a nice life and stay out of mine wile your at it.

Or stick around and argue that your not "bipolar" and prove them all wrong. Have fun with that.

"The bipolar diagnosis I gave you was wrong" Hell will freeze over before one of them ever says that.

PS

If you have been taking those pills daily for a wile don't just throw them out and quit cold turkey. Taper down. Withdrawal reactions are no joke. And remember since the mental health system got you started on drugs, it also has a responsibility to help you terminate those drugs as safely as possible if that is your choice. Then tell them to ###$ off.
I survived psychiatry.

This experiment sums up psychiatry very well:


https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rosenhan_experiment


Old study, however I can assure you psychiatry has not changed since. Psychiatry is a billion dollar business venture entirely based on relative observation and pseudo science having yet to be proven as holding a basis in reality. A concept engineered from the ground up to capitalize off human life at any expense trapping people in a system almost impossible to escape.


You have every right to find someone else, or just walk away.
